The Camp Verde Yavapai-Apache Indian Reservation is in central Arizona's Verde Valley. The reservation is populated by the Yavapai and Tonto Apache Indian Tribes, inhabitants of this area for centuries. President U. S. Grant established the reservation in 1871, but abandoned it in 1875 and its people were moved against their will to the San Carlos Apache Reservation. A migration back to their traditional homeland began immediately after 1900. A reservation area was re-established in 1909 and additional lands acquired over the years. Today, the 636-acre reservation is comprised of five separate parcels with headquarters at Middle Verde.

The reservation is in the Coconino National Forest with the Prescott National Forest to the east and the Kaibab National Forest to the north. Fort Verde State Park is within the nearby town of Camp Verde. Four of the original adobe fort buildings still stand and are open to the public. The park's museum contains early military artifacts, Indian relics, and implements used by Verde Valley settlers. Three national monuments–Montezuma Castle, Montezuma Well, and Tuzigoot–which are fascinating examples of prehistoric Indian cliff dwellings and pueblos are within 25 miles of the reservation. Also nearby are the famous artist colonies of Sedona and Jerome, both popular tourist attractions. Dining/lodging facilities are available in the Verde Valley.
